Installing Contiki and Cooja Simulator in UBUNTU

About a week ago, I thought to install TikiriDB and tryout it. To use it I have to install Contiki operating system and the cooja simulator which are the platform to run TikiriDB. Started from reading the tikiriDB home page (http://score.ucsc.lk/projects/tikiridb). There's a link provided in that page which shows how to install contiki and cooja in Ubuntu 8.10 (installing contiki/cooja). However I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid and it works. The only issue is if your going to install netsim simulator provided with contiki, your in trouble because the required package (libgtk1.2-dev) is not supporting to Ubuntu 9.04 and 10.04 as I know. By the way, I forget netsim and advanced to all the other things.
Here we go,
